Green with Envy

I recently staged a home with green kitchen cabinets.  I was warned by the realtor before the appointment.  "Not to worry," I relayed to the realtor.  "I just cut out a cabinet ad in my kitchen design magazine that highlights green cabinets."  I told her that I don't believe that green is the new white, but with the right wall, counter and appliance applications, it could look great.  I suggested white formica countertops, white walls and stainless appliances (similar to the kitchen design magazine's look).  When I gave the homeowner the picture from the magazine she was excited and agreed to my suggestions.  Just like buyers, homeowners sometimes need to see the completed look.  Design magazines are vital resources for me.  It's a great way to get staging ideas and to know what's in style.
